St. Philip the Apostle holds the protection of our children and vulnerable adults of utmost importance. All volunteers, staff, and clergy over the age of 18 are required to complete the training program.  In addition, a background check will be conducted prior to volunteering or employment.

The Archdiocese has implemented the new Safe Haven program to educate clergy, staff, and volunteers about ways to create a safe environment for all children and teens. The program trains adults to recognize the warning signs and how to respond appropriately.

All volunteers at our parish must complete the Safe Haven training sessions online and undergo background checks to ensure the safety of all.  New volunteers must register. We adhere and follow the protocols of the Archdiocese of Galveston-Houston.

Select the Safe Haven training link on the right side of the screen and register for a new account to begin the online sessions. If you have trouble registering or have questions please contact the parish office at (281) 324-1478, and we will help you.
